Single Cores or Multi-core Cables, How to Choose

June 15, 2022June 15, 2022

There are two types of cables, single core cables and multi-core cables.

Because cabling is the most popular (and in most cases the only) way to power a site.

So, they are everywhere. You can find them in homes, factories, public buildings, roads and shopping malls.

A single core underground cable may not be visible because it is buried in a trench, while a multi-core cable application may be visible to all, running on a wall or ceiling.

This raises the question: what is a single core cable or a multi-core cable?

Why do you choose to use multi-core cables instead of single core cables?

Recognize Overhead Lines and Electrical Towers

June 14, 2022June 13, 2022

Overhead lines are supported by sections of transmission towers.

Electricity pylons are used for the higher tension lines.

And wooden or concrete poles are typically used for lower tension lines.

This is because higher tension lines (línea de tension más alta) must be installed at a great height, as they require a greater safety clearance.

Only electrical pylons can afford to carry lines of tens of tons.

Can Plastics Be Conductors? What Are Plastic Conductors?

June 6, 2022

Plastics are often considered to have very poor electrical conductivity, which is why they are used to make insulating sheaths for cables. However, scientists have discovered that plastic conductors can be made by mixing plastics with a high concentration of filamentary carbon black and a coking compound. Plastic conductors are … Read more

ZMS Cables’ Top Solar Wire and Cable

May 31, 2022

The solar market is one of the fast-growing markets in the world and is expected to grow by 20% in the next few years. Therefore, it is only natural that there are many cable products for solar panels on the market. This quick guide will help you understand the differences between the main solar cable types offered by ZMS Cables.
Photovoltaic cables come with both aluminum and solar conductors. Both are popular, with aluminum being much cheaper than copper. Copper photovoltaic cables have excellent electrical conductivity. The differences between the two are examined in more detail below.

The Difference Between Stranded and Solid Cables

May 27, 2022May 26, 2022

Cables include stranded or solid cables. The choice of using stranded or solid cable depends on several factors, such as the type of application and the project environment. Choosing the right type of cable can help make project cabling more logical.

Solar Cable Performance Requirements

May 27, 2022May 20, 2022

Solar cables, also known as PV cables, are the solar system components for connecting the panels of the photovoltaic power system. Photovoltaic power generation is based on the principle of the photovoltaic effect. It uses solar cells to convert the energy from sunlight directly into electricity through solar cable. Photovoltaic power systems consist of three main components: solar panels, controllers and inverters.

Ten Minutes To Get You Up To Speed On Types And Applications Of Marine Wire

May 19, 2022

There are various marine wire and cable classifications available on the Internet, but not all of them will meet your needs. Here is a short breakdown of marine cables that will give you what you need with relative ease, including P-type cables, dangling cables, and more. We’ll address the differences between marine cable and marine cable once and for all.

The Role and Difference of Metal Shielding of Medium-voltage Cable

May 16, 2022

In the power industry, 220 volts and 380 volts are considered to be low voltage, mainly for household electricity. 35,000 volts and above are high voltage, mainly used for power transmission. In between, it is medium voltage. And it is extremely dangerous to touch high-voltage power lines or to carry … Read more

Understand The Difference Between Armor Cable And Non-Armor Cable

May 13, 2022

1. Different concepts

Armor cable: It is installed by different material conductors in a metal sleeve with insulating materials, and is processed into a bending solid combination.

Non-armor cable: cables without armor protective layers, from several or several sets of wires in each group of at least two twisted cables, each set of wires insulated, often surrounds a center Twisted. The entire outer bread has a highly insulated coverage layer.

Development Of Environmentally Friendly Mineral Insulation Cables

June 16, 2022May 7, 2022

Abstract: Introduce the materials and structures of environmentally friendly mineral insulation fire cables, through designing mineral fire prevention insulating layers, thermosetting polymer protective layers, inorganic fiber filler, low smoke halogen-free silicon porcelain insulation layer, metal armor fireproof layer, fire prevention layer, and metal armor fireproof layer. The composite refractory structure is composed of low -smoke halogen-free environmental protection external care layer, realizing the environmental protection of cable fire resistance and low toxic environmental protection performance, low toxicity, and fire-resistant cable.
